2013 has been a momentous year. Like everything it has had it’s highs and lows, sadness mixed with great laughter, controversial and historical endeavours, but what has this year been like for women? 

‘How Media Failed Women in 2013’ is a video uploaded to the YouTube channel, Miss Representation, that has put a montage of moments together when they feel the media has failed females this year.

The clip begins by showing us the great things women have completed and quickly draws comparisons to when women have been let down, not only by the media, but by other members of the sex.

The video has gone viral and in just a few days of posting it has already garnered  over 2 million views.

The video description reads: “There was a lot to celebrate this year for women in the media. But some things aren’t changing fast enough…”

The YouTube group encourage people to join their campaign, simply titled ‘Change Media.’
